Archiver should be adding "Created-By: Apache Maven _2.0.4_" to the manifest
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2634
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2634
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: maven-archiver
Affects Versions: 2.0.4
Reporter: Matthew Beermann
The maven-archiver currently adds the string "Created-By: Apache Maven" to the
manifest of all projects. This is good, but it needs to be more specific - e.g.
Apache Maven 2.0.4. This would have two major benefits:
1) It would bring it in line with the "Build-Jdk" field, which has values
like "1.5.0_09"
2) It would help in having truly repeatable builds - potentially, you need to
know which version of Maven was used to build an artifact
I'd write the patch myself if I could figure out how to get at the
information... it's in a @component called "runtimeInformation", but how do you
access components from a low-level library like maven-archiver?
